I had to look at this thread again to see if an additional update was made. The work is impressive. Bodywork has never been & probably never will be my thing, but this does make it look exciting to see the vast improvements.

as some parts went missing and there is no choise but to also fabricated to orginal. luckily one of our clooeague willing to lend his to copy. but really sorry as i dont have the other detail of this bonnet to show here.

can i have some ideas please; if works like this are being done in your country, how the charges are brought in calculation. maybe few words from you can help me in explaining my customers how they should understand and appreciate metal bangers like us.

I take it your are making each panel by hand meaning no master die or form. Would you be able to duplicate these panels? The craftmanship in your work is great but what is the true cost and would any of us be able to afford your craftmanship?

Thanks Adzmax. But it kindda hard to solidly value an hourly rate or any time based rate. One of the reasons is that, we can focus on a car at a time. normally 4 cars at a go would make sense to a business like this. By taking all expenses like rental or overhead for instant, focusing on a car project wouldn't make us survive in this country. In your place could be better. But many thanks for you information.
